In addition the new SWIFT PG27AQ includes an easy-to-navigate on-screen display (OSD) with a five-way navigation joystick and hotkey shortcuts, an ergonomic design with full tilt, swivel, pivot and height adjustment, and a smart cable-management system in a super narrow bezel design. Other gaming features like their 'game mode' presets and 'Black eQualizer' return, and there is now also an ‘Auto Game Mode’ setting which intelligently detects the genre of game you’re playing and adjusts to an ‘appropriate’ game mode setting (FPS, RTS etc). In other specs the screen offers 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 178/178 viewing angles and a standard gamut sRGB coverage from its W-LED backlight. A single DisplayPort 1.2 connection is provided which is required to offer G-sync support. Given that the maximum refresh rate is 60Hz on this model it is unlikely that the PG27AQ will offer support for Ultra Low Motion Blur (ULMB) or NVIDIA  3D Vision since those really require higher refresh rates to operate.
